Ep. 115 ft. Jedidiah Jenkins - To Shake the Sleeping Self: On Writing, Relationships, Sexuality, Adventure, & God

Jordan chats with Jedidiah Jenkins, the executive editor of Wilderness Magazine, and author of To Shake The Sleeping Self, as well as the co-founder of Mybyta. Jedidiah has such an amazing way of making people feel so heard and loved, and that truly is felt in this conversation. Jordan and Jedidiah talk all about his new book, which is all about his bike trek from Oregon to Patagonia, and what he discovered in himself along the way. The two even go into his relationship with religion and his sexuality, all the way to what his life looks like now!

 

Are you #OnShrooms yet? Jordan has been loving Four Sigmatic more than ever (if you haven’t already, check out episode 85 with the company’s founder, Tero Isokauppila) because she’s cut out coffee entirely. If you’re trying to stay off of coffee but still want to feel alert and awake, there’s nothing better for you or better tasting than the caffeine-free Four Sigmatic Chaga Elixir (with some almond milk, a date, and cinnamon, it makes a great latte!). You can go to FourSigmatic.com/BLONDE to get 15% off of your order!

 

We’d like to thank HUM Nutrition! Jordan has been talking about them on the blog for YEARS because they help her feel amazing, and she wants you to know about them, too! HUM is an all-natural line of supplements, and their goal is to use science-based and clinical-backed nutrition as a tool for helping people feel amazing. After being diagnosed with Lyme, Jordan has been all about HUM’s different detoxification supplements like the Daily Cleanse. When you go to HUMNutrition.com, don’t forget to use the discount code SOUL at checkout to get 20% off your first order!

 

You know how much Jordan loves her probiotics! Silver Fern has the proper amount of strains of bacteria in their probiotic, so it can actually arrive alive in your intestinal tract. (That’s what you want!) Head on over to Silver Fern’s website and use the code BLONDE for 20% off your order. And don’t forget to listen to Silver Fern chief nutritionist Charity Lighten’s episode! Jordan just loves their probiotic, and the plant protein powder (it’s chocolate flavored!)
